Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) are a suitable supply solution for electricity consumers looking for long-term security and predictability. The aream Group has successfully structured a long-term PPA for a German solar park with over 50 MWp for its customer. “We were able to secure a European energy supplier as a contractual partner, who will supply the green electricity generated to a well-known industrial customer“, says Markus W. Voigt, CEO of the aream Group.

PPAs are long-term power purchase agreements between an electricity producer - in this case the operator of a solar park - and an electricity consumer, often a company or energy supplier. Such contracts offer renewable energy operators planning security over a longer period of time, while customers benefit from stable electricity prices and the opportunity to improve their carbon footprint. PPAs are a particularly attractive option for companies seeking to become more sustainable.

However, as PPAs are complex, expert advice is required. ”Successful PPAs require a 360-degree perspective and must take into account the requirements of the developers as well as the interests of the buyers”, explains Voigt. ”And last but not least, the financing parties must be involved.” Thanks to its knowledge of the market and its expertise, the aream Group has found an optimal solution for all parties involved.

At the same time, the contract that has now been concluded also has strategic significance for the aream Group. ”This PPA demonstrates that our Energy Markets division goes far beyond mere brokerage”, says Voigt. The close cooperation with electricity consumers, financiers and other market participants enables tailored solutions that secure long-term economic returns - now and in the future.
